I came into the Academy for a small business success seminar not knowing what to expect. I left feeling motivated, focussed with a clear set of goals. The educators also gave me the tools I need to achieve my goals, for example marketing assistance. They also have offered their support should I need their assistance in the future! Couldn't have asked for a better experience!

I did my waxing course through Academy Studio the staff are very friendly, informative and supportive! Very pleased.

Approximate cost: $995

The course was well planned and our teacher was amazing; she was very helpful, supportive and well informed. The course was so much fun (a highlight of my week) and we managed to learn heaps. The course was great with building confidence and fully preparing me with what to expect in the beauty industry. Overall it was a great experience.

Approximate cost: $1000

I trained here doing the waxing course. I was blown away by the professionalism of the staff, the course was above my expectations. The trainer was brilliant, and the office second to none. The owner (Deanna) really cares about you and your needs and has set up the courses accordingly.
Because of the Academy I am now able to set up a home business which has always been a dream of mine. Thankyou!

I trained here for my body waxing, XXX waxing and eyebrow artistry. I found the teachers to be brilliant at what they do and how they teach, and there are only 4 people in the class so you get pretty much one on one training. I would and do highly recommend The Academy for its training and also Deanna (owner) really cares about her students. I am looking forward to going back for more training in this ever expanding wonderful beauty industry.

I have done a few courses with Academy studio; the hair/up styling course, make-up artistry, Myscara and spray tanning. In each course the educators are very knowledgeable in what they are teaching, very helpful and friendly. Because of the small class sizes, you get more one on one time with the educators helping and teaching you. Which is great with making sure you understand what you are doing, getting the correct technique, as well as some little tips and tricks along the way. The courses are designed for anyone to do regardless of your prior learning, whether you've never done it before or currently as a trade. I highly recommend Academy studio if you are wanting to get into the industry, set up your own business from home or even just to add/ refresh your skills. Great fun and friendly atmosphere, I have learnt lots of new skills and tricks which are very useful!

I started looking at the Health and Beauty Industry in 2006.
With much disappointment with the negative attitude of most other training colleges, telling me that they don't enrol males, I then came across The Academy.
I had a very friendly conversation on the telephone with a staff member explaining to me that if I was interested in a course that my options where to wait until they had enough males to make up a class (this could take some time) or to enrol in private tuition.
In June 2007 I did my certificate in waxing (general waxing and Men's & Ladies xxx waxing).

I have since completed several other certificates with The Academy. The Academy is a wonderful place that is able to take care of each participant's individual needs. I've been very lucky that where they can, I am placed in a class with others (females) and when they can't I look at the private option. Either way, I manage to leave with more than I expected and new friends in the industry. Private tuition is wonderful as it gets you through a course quickly, efficiently in a one on one environment. But nothing beats a class environment as your peers always have a wealth of worldly knowledge to share.
Working in a niche field of Men's Waxing & Grooming, my business has a lot to thank The Academy for in their ongoing support and finding the right courses for me. I have not taken on any staff but find myself busy enough to keep me going.
I highly recommend The Academy to anyone interested in joining the industry or even someone that is in the industry that needs to brush up on their techniques.
Anyone wishing to take advantage of a course at The Academy, I wish you luck. Keep your eye out I might be in your class.
